Depending on the timing, the second client that should be reported as a
client abort during connection attempt ("CC--" termination state) is
sometime logged as a server close ("SC--" termination state) instead. It
happens because sometime the connection failure to the server s1 is detected
by haproxy before the client c2 aborts. There is no retries and the
connection timeout is set to 100ms. So, to work, the client abort must be
performed and detected by haproxy in less than 100ms.
To fix the issue, the c2 client is now routed to a backend with a connection
timeout set to 1 second and 10 retries. It should be large enough to detect
the client aborts (~10s)
In addition, there is another race condition when the script is
started. sometime, server s1 is not stopped when the first client sends its
request. So a barrier was added to be sure it is stopped before starting to
send requests. And we wait to be sure the server is detected as DOWN to
unblock the barrier. It is performed by a dedicated backend with an
healthcheck on the server s1.
This patch should solve issue #1664.
The "http-restrict-req-hdr-names" option can now be set to restrict allowed
characters in the request header names to the "[a-zA-Z0-9-]" charset.
Idea of this option is to not send header names with non-alphanumeric or
hyphen character. It is especially important for FastCGI application because
all those characters are converted to underscore. For instance,
"X-Forwarded-For" and "X_Forwarded_For" are both converted to
"HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR". So, header names can be mixed up by FastCGI
applications. And some HAProxy rules may be bypassed by mangling header
names. In addition, some non-HTTP compliant servers may incorrectly handle
requests when header names contain characters ouside the "[a-zA-Z0-9-]"
charset.
When this option is set, the policy must be specify:
* preserve: It disables the filtering. It is the default mode for HTTP
proxies with no FastCGI application configured.
* delete: It removes request headers with a name containing a character
outside the "[a-zA-Z0-9-]" charset. It is the default mode for
HTTP backends with a configured FastCGI application.
* reject: It rejects the request with a 403-Forbidden response if it
contains a header name with a character outside the
"[a-zA-Z0-9-]" charset.
The option is evaluated per-proxy and after http-request rules evaluation.
This patch may be backported to avoid any secuirty issue with FastCGI
application (so as far as 2.2).
Since the 2.5, it is possible to define TCP/HTTP ruleset in defaults
sections. However, rules defining a capture in defaults sections was not
properly handled because they was not shared with the proxies inheriting
from the defaults section. This led to crash when haproxy tried to store a
new capture.
So now, to fix the issue, when a new proxy is created, the list of captures
points to the list of its defaults section. It may be NULL or not. All new
caputres are prepended to this list. It is not a problem to share the same
defaults section between several proxies, because it is not altered and we
take care to not release it when corresponding proxies are freed but only
when defaults proxies are freed. To do so, defaults proxies are now
unreferenced at the end of free_proxy() function instead of the beginning.
This patch should fix the issue #1674. It must be backported to 2.5.
DHE ciphers do not present a security risk if the key is big enough but
they are slow and mostly obsoleted by ECDHE. This patch removes any
default DH parameters. This will effectively disable all DHE ciphers
unless a global ssl-dh-param-file is defined, or
tune.ssl.default-dh-param is set, or a frontend has DH parameters
included in its PEM certificate. In this latter case, only the frontends
that have DH parameters will have DHE ciphers enabled.
Adding explicitely a DHE ciphers in a "bind" line will not be enough to
actually enable DHE. We would still need to know which DH parameters to
use so one of the three conditions described above must be met.
This request was described in GitHub issue #1604.
This new converter is similar to the concat converter and can be used to
build new variables made of a succession of other variables but the main
difference is that it does the checks if adding a delimiter makes sense as
wouldn't be the case if e.g the current input sample is empty. That
situation would require 2 separate rules using concat converter where the
first rule would have to check if the current sample string is empty before
adding a delimiter. This resolves GitHub Issue #1621.
In MQTTv3.1, protocol name is "MQIsdp" and protocol level is 3. The mqtt
converters(mqtt_is_valid and mqtt_field_value) did not work for clients on
mqttv3.1 because the mqtt_parse_connect() marked the CONNECT message invalid
if either the protocol name is not "MQTT" or the protocol version is other than
v3.1.1 or v5.0. To fix it, we have added the mqttv3.1 protocol name and version
as part of the checks.
This patch fixes the mqtt converters to support mqttv3.1 clients as well (issue #1600).
It must be backported to 2.4.
In the same way than for be2hex.vtc, a "Connection: close" header is added
to all responses to avoid any connection reuse. This should avoid any "HTTP
header incomplete" errors.
Dynamic servers feature is now judged to be stable enough. Remove the
experimental-mode requirement for "add/del server" commands. This should
facilitate dynamic servers adoption.
These two sample fetch methods report respectively the file name and the
line number where was located the last rule that was final. This is aimed
at being used on log-format lines to help admins figure what rule in the
configuration gave a final verdict, and help understand the condition
that led to the action.
For example, it's now possible to log the last matched rule by adding
this to the log-format:
... lr=%[last_rule_file]:%[last_rule_line]
A regtest is provided to test various combinations of final rules, some
even on top of each other from different rulesets.
In the same way than for normalize_uri.vtc, a "Connection: close" header is
added to all responses to avoid any connection reuse. This should avoid any
"HTTP header incomplete" errors.
There is no connection reuse to avoid race conditions in HTTP reg-tests. But
time to time, normalize_uri.vtc still report "HTTP header incomplete"
error. It seems to be because HTTP keep-alive is still used at the session
level. Thus when the same server section is used to handle multiple requests
for the same client, via a "-repeat" statement, a new request for this client
may be handled by HAProxy before the server is restarted.
To avoid any trouble, HTTP keep-alive is disabled on the server side by
adding "Connection: close" header in responses. It seems to be ok now. We
let the CI decide.
This one started to randomly fail on me again and I could figure the
problem. It mixes one checked server with one unchecked on in each
backend, and tries to make sure that each checked server receives
exactly one request. But that doesn't work and is entirely time-
dependent because if the check starts before the client, a pure
TCP check is sent to the server, which sees an aborted connection
and makes the whole check fail.
Here what is done is that we make sure that only the second server
and not the first one is checked. The traffic is delivered to all
first servers, and each HTTP server must always receive a valid HTTP
request. In parallel, checks must not fail as they're delivered to
dummy servers. The check doesn't fail anymore, even when started on
a single thread at nice +5 while 8 processes are fighting on the same
core to inject HTTP traffic at 25 Gbps, which used to systematically
make it fail previously.
Since it took more than one hour to fix the "expect" line for the stats
output, I did it using a small script that I pasted into the vtc file
in case it's needed later. The relevance of this test is questionable
once its complexity is factored in. Let's keep it as long as it works
without too much effort.
The 'dst' optionnal field on a httpclient request can be used to set an
alternative server address in the haproxy address format. Which means it
could be use with unix@, ipv6@ etc.
Should fix issue #1471.
tls_basic_sync_wo_stkt_backend fails once every 200 runs for me. This
seems to be because the startup delay doesn't always allow peers to
perform a simultaneous connect, close and new attempt. With 3s I can't
see it fail anymore. In addition the long "delay 0.2" are still way too
much since we do not really care about the startup order in practice.
Sometimes when sending commands to shut down a server, haproxy complains
that some connections remain, this is because the server-side connection
might not always be completely released at the moment the client leaves
and the operation is emitted. While shutting down server sessions work,
it seems cleaner to just use "option httpclose" which releases the server
earlier and avoids the race.
This can be backported to 2.5.
This new test checks that the DH-related mechanism works, be it through
specific DH parameters included in a bind line's certificate or by using
the ssl-dh-param-file or tune.ssl.default-dh-param global options.
The "curves" and the older "ecdhe" SSL options that can be used to
define a subset of curves than can be used in an SSL handshake were not
tested in a regtest yet.
This test was broken with OpenSSL 1.0.2 after commit a996763619
(BUG/MINOR: ssl: Store client SNI in SSL context in case of ClientHello
error) because it expected the default TLS version to be 1.3 in some
cases (when it can't be the case with OpenSSL 1.0.2).
If an error is raised during the ClientHello callback on the server side
(ssl_sock_switchctx_cbk), the servername callback won't be called and
the client's SNI will not be saved in the SSL context. But since we use
the SSL_get_servername function to return this SNI in the ssl_fc_sni
sample fetch, that means that in case of error, such as an SNI mismatch
with a frontend having the strict-sni option enabled, the sample fetch
would not work (making strict-sni related errors hard to debug).
This patch fixes that by storing the SNI as an ex_data in the SSL
context in case the ClientHello callback returns an error. This way the
sample fetch can fallback to getting the SNI this way. It will still
first call the SSL_get_servername function first since it is the proper
way of getting a client's SNI when the handshake succeeded.
In order to avoid memory allocations are runtime into this highly used
runtime function, a new memory pool was created to store those client
SNIs. Its entry size is set to 256 bytes since SNIs can't be longer than
255 characters.
This fixes GitHub #1484.
It can be backported in 2.5.
Patch 2c776f1 ("BUG/MEDIUM: ssl: initialize correctly ssl w/
default-server") added tests that are not relevant anymore and broke the
reg-test. revert them.
This bug was introduced by d817dc73 ("MEDIUM: ssl: Load client
certificates in a ckch for backend servers") in which the creation of
the SSL_CTX for a server was moved to the configuration parser when
using a "crt" keyword instead of being done in ssl_sock_prepare_srv_ctx().
The patch 0498fa40 ("BUG/MINOR: ssl: Default-server configuration ignored by
server") made it worse by setting the same SSL_CTX for every servers
using a default-server. Resulting in any SSL option on a server applied
to every server in its backend.
This patch fixes the issue by reintroducing a string which store the
path of certificate inside the server structure, and loading the
certificate in ssl_sock_prepare_srv_ctx() again.
This is a quick fix to backport, a cleaner way can be achieve by always
creating the SSL_CTX in ssl_sock_prepare_srv_ctx() and splitting
properly the ssl_sock_load_srv_cert() function.
This patch fixes issue #1488.
Must be backported as far as 2.4.
LibreSSL-3.4.2 introduced cert revocation check behaviour change, for some
checks now X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY (20) is returned.
https://github.com/libressl-portable/portable/issues/697
let us modify vtc accordingly
During post-parsing stage, the SSL context of a server is initialized if SSL
is configured on the server or its default-server. It is required to be able
to enable SSL at runtime. However a regression was introduced, because the
last parsed default-server is used. But it is not necessarily the
default-server line used to configure the server. This may lead to
erroneously initialize the SSL context for a server without SSL parameter or
the skip it while it should be done.
The problem is the default-server used to configure a server is not saved
during configuration parsing. So, the information is lost during the
post-parsing. To fix the bug, the SRV_F_DEFSRV_USE_SSL flag is
introduced. It is used to know when a server was initialized with a
default-server using SSL.
For the record, the commit f63704488e ("MEDIUM: cli/ssl: configure ssl on
server at runtime") has introduced the bug.
This patch must be backported as far as 2.4.
This patch allows to replace the host header generated by the
httpclient instead of adding a new one, resulting in the server replying
an error 400.
The host header is now generated from the uri only if it wasn't found in
the list of headers.
Also add a new request in the VTC file to test this.
This patch must be backported in 2.5.
With the CI occasionally slowing down, we're starting to see again some
spurious failures despite the long 1-second timeouts. This reports false
positives that are disturbing and doesn't provide as much value as this
could. However at this delay it already becomes a pain for developers
to wait for the tests to complete.
This commit adds support for the new environment variable
HAPROXY_TEST_TIMEOUT that will allow anyone to modify the connect,
client and server timeouts. It was set to 5 seconds by default, which
should be plenty for quite some time in the CI. All relevant values
that were 200ms or above were replaced by this one. A few larger
values were left as they are special. One test for the set-timeout
action that used to rely on a fixed 1-sec value was extended to a
fixed 5-sec, as the timeout is normally not reached, but it needs
to be known to compare the old and new values.
This test was dependent on the check/server timeout to detect a failure,
which is not logical since we also use that one as an upper bound for
success in the second test, and that needlessly extends the test duration.
Let's make sur the timeout strikes immediately with only 1 ms timeout. Now
the total tests time is around 5.3-5.4s down from 8.7s in dev14. There is
still quite some room for improvement in the peers tests which all wait 2s
before starting but this will be more complicated.
Some tests expect a 503, typically those that check that wrong CA/CRL
will not be accepted between a server and a frontend. But such tests
tend to last very long simply because of the 1-second turn-around on
connection retries that happens during the failure. Let's properly set
the retries count to zero for these ones. One test purposely wants to
exhaust the retries so the retries was set to 1 instead.
The feature cmd was incorrectly set to:
feature cmd "$HAPROXY_PROGRAM -cc 'feature(OPENSSL)' && 'openssl_version_atleast(1.1.1)'"
Which was incorrect since the quotes must surrendered the -cc argument.
Also the test requires openssl and does not work with libressl.
This reverts commit 597909f4e6
http-after-response rules evaluation was changed to do the same that was
done for http-response, in the code. However, the opposite must be performed
instead. Only the rules of the current section must be stopped. Thus the
above commit is reverted and the http-response rules evaluation will be
fixed instead.
Note that only "allow" action is concerned. It is most probably an uncommon
action for an http-after-request rule.
This patch must be backported as far as 2.2 if the above commit was
backported.
A TCP/HTTP action can stop the rules evaluation. However, it should be
applied on the current section only. For instance, for http-requests rules,
an "allow" on a frontend must stop evaluation of rules defined in this
frontend. But the backend rules, if any, must still be evaluated.
For http-response rulesets, according the configuration manual, the same
must be true. Only "allow" action is concerned. However, since the
beginning, this action stops evaluation of all remaining rules, not only
those of the current section.
This patch may be backported to all supported versions. But it is not so
critical because the bug exists since a while. I doubt it will break any
existing configuration because the current behavior is
counterintuitive.
During a troublehooting it came obvious that the SNI always ought to
be logged on httpslog, as it explains errors caused by selection of
the default certificate (or failure to do so in case of strict-sni).
This expectation was also confirmed on the mailing list.
Since the field may be empty it appeared important not to leave an
empty string in the current format, so it was decided to place the
field before a '/' preceding the SSL version and ciphers, so that
in the worst case a missing field leads to a field looking like
"/TLSv1.2/AES...", though usually a missing element still results
in a "-" in logs.
This will change the log format for users who already deployed the
2.5-dev versions (hence the medium level) but no released version
was using this format yet so there's no harm for stable deployments.
The reg-test was updated to check for "-" there since we don't send
SNI in reg-tests.

Commit 3d2093af9 ("MINOR: connection: Add a connection error code sample
fetch") added these convenient sample-fetch functions but it appears that
due to a misunderstanding the redundant "conn" part was kept in their
name, causing confusion, since "fc" already stands for "front connection".
Let's simply call them "fc_err" and "bc_err" to match all other related
ones before they appear in a final release. The VTC they appeared in were
also updated, and the alpha sort in the keywords table updated.

Implement parsing for the server keyword 'ws'. This is used to configure
the mode of selection for websocket protocol. The configuration
documentation has been updated.
A new regtest has been created to test the proper behavior of the
keyword.
The RFC8441 was not respected by haproxy in regards with server support
for Extended CONNECT. The Extended CONNECT method was used to convert an
Upgrade header stream even if no SETTINGS_ENABLE_CONNECT_PROTOCOL was
received, which is forbidden by the RFC8441. In this case, the behavior
of the http/2 server is unspecified.
Fix this by flagging the connection on receiption of the RFC8441
settings SETTINGS_ENABLE_CONNECT_PROTOCOL. Extended CONNECT is thus only
be used if the flag is present. In the other case, the stream is
immediatly closed as there is no way to handle it in http/2. It results
in a http/1.1 502 or http/2 RESET_STREAM to the client side.
The protocol-upgrade regtest has been extended to test that haproxy does
not emit Extended CONNECT on servers without RFC8441 support.
It must be backported up to 2.4.
